The National Student Arts Festival and Competition (FLS3N) is an event aimed at developing students’ talents and achievements in the arts, including solo vocal competitions. The assessment process in this category involves multiple criteria, which may lead to subjectivity in decision-making. This study aims to design and develop a web-based Decision Support System (DSS) for selecting non-academic students in the FLS3N solo vocal category using the Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) method. The assessment criteria are based on the 2025 FLS3N Technical Guidelines, consisting of voice quality, vocal technique, expression, and performance. The TOPSIS method is applied to generate alternative rankings based on the highest preference value. The system is developed using a web-based software development approach and tested using participant data from both male and female categories. The results indicate that the system can provide objective and consistent ranking recommendations, thereby assisting schools in selecting the best students to represent them in the FLS3N competition.
This study explores how the organizational culture of Sanggar Kartika Budaya strengthens local artistic values through identity building, leadership, training strategies, and adaptive creativity. Rooted in a commitment to traditional arts, the sanggar positions local cultural expression not only as heritage but also as a living space for innovation. The research aims to uncover how these cultural elements shape member behavior, sustain artistic traditions, and support the regeneration of young artists. Using a qualitative approach with document analysis, this study examines official profiles, program descriptions, and relevant scholarly sources. The findings reveal that the sanggar’s cultural identity centered on the motto “Pegang Teguh Seni Tradisi Siap Berkreasi”serves as the backbone of its learning system and creative ecosystem. Leadership plays a central role in directing artistic vision while safeguarding cultural authenticity. Structured training, literacy activities, and collaborative performances effectively embed traditional values in new members. The sanggar also demonstrates an ability to evolve with modern trends through creative choreography, multimedia integration, and active participation in contemporary festivals, all while maintaining strong roots in local heritage. These findings highlight how a well-structured organizational culture can act as a powerful engine for cultural preservation and artistic resilience. The implications suggest that cultural institutions can remain relevant in a fast-changing era by blending heritage with innovation, ensuring that tradition continues to live meaningfully in the hands of future generations.
This study analyzes the role of women in sustaining social harmony and strengthening multicultural education within the multiethnic society of Singkawang through a critical literature review approach. By integrating the Feminist Peace Theory and Multicultural Education Theory, this research examines both national and international scholarly works that explore women’s contributions to peacebuilding and multicultural education in Southeast Asia. The review reveals that women serve as cultural mediators, peace educators, and social innovators through interethnic and interfaith engagements such as cultural festivals, interreligious forums, and community-based initiatives. Despite notable progress in promoting multicultural education in Singkawang, gender perspectives remain insufficiently integrated into educational practices. Through a synthesis of the reviewed literature, this study proposes a conceptual framework of Gendered Multicultural Peace Education (GMPE), comprising three interrelated dimensions: women’s empowerment in educational and social leadership, empathy-based interethnic learning, and the integration of gender equality into curricula and school culture. The model underscores the strategic role of women as transformative agents and peace educators in multiethnic societies. The findings provide significant implications for the development of gender-sensitive and inclusive educational policies in Indonesia
Islamic Religious Education (PAI) plays a strategic role in shaping students’ character and developing their religious potential. However, religious learning often becomes less engaging if not presented creatively. The PAI Festival (Pentas PAI) in Karangharja Village, Pagelaran District, Cianjur Regency, was implemented to explore and foster students’ religious talents and interests through Islamic-themed competitions. This program applied the Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) approach, focusing on mobilizing community religious assets such as Islamic teachers, preachers, and local religious institutions. The implementation consisted of five stages: discover, dream, design, define, and destiny. The results indicate that Pentas PAI effectively served as a medium for students to express their religious abilities, enhance enthusiasm for learning religion, and cultivate Islamic character values such as responsibility, sportsmanship, and confidence. Furthermore, the activity strengthened collaboration among schools, communities, and families in supporting religious education. By optimizing local assets and community participation, Pentas PAI successfully created an engaging and sustainable model of religious education at the village level.
Indonesia, as a pluralistic nation, faces significant challenges in maintaining social harmony amidst increasing globalization and cultural disruption. One strategy to strengthen the nation's ideological resilience is through religious moderation based on the values of Pancasila and multiculturalism. This Community Service (PKM) activity was carried out in Widodaren Village, Gerih District, Ngawi Regency, with the aim of fostering tolerance, strengthening national identity, and internalizing the values of religious moderation in community life. The implementation method includes three stages: preparation, implementation, and evaluation. The implementation stage includes Training for Anti-Radicalism and Intolerance Cadre Facilitators (KANIRA), a Religious Moderation Workshop, interfaith mutual cooperation activities, and a Village Diversity Festival. A participatory approach was implemented so that the community is actively involved in the entire activity process. All activities were carried out with a participatory approach so that the community can understand and internalize the values of moderation contextually. The program's implementation has demonstrated the growth of dialogue, interfaith cooperation, and a spirit of togetherness among residents in daily life. The positive response from the community and village officials demonstrates that a value-based approach to religious moderation can be an effective means of strengthening national identity at the local level.
Pantomime arts development in elementary schools plays a crucial role in fostering students' creativity, self-confidence, and expressive abilities. This study examines the transformation of pantomime development at SDN 1 Beureunuen, a school that hosts the National Student Arts Festival and Competition (FLS3N) in Mutiara Timur District, Pidie Regency. Using an active qualitative approach through participant observation, informal interviews, and documentation of participant development from 2019 to 2025, this study examines how creative pedagogy practices, constructivist approaches, and strengthening cultural identity are applied in the development process. The results show a significant increase in school participation in pantomime competitions, from only three groups in 2019 to twelve groups in 2025. SDN 1 Beureunuen's success in winning the gold medal at the national level in the FLS3N has been a driving factor in the paradigm shift of teachers, which in turn has encouraged the creation of a competitive arts ecosystem at the sub-district level. These findings confirm that the implementation of creative pedagogy and tiered development can improve the quality of arts learning and strengthen the capacity of teachers and students in areas with minimal resources.
Strengthening religious moderation is a strategic effort to build a harmonious social life, especially in Berastagi, which is characterized by cultural, religious, and ethnic diversity. Through the Community Service Program (KKN) of UINSU students in 2025, various programs were designed to encourage community participation while raising collective awareness of the importance of religious moderation values. The main programs include a dish soap-making workshop as an economic empowerment initiative, an anti-bullying campaign to instill tolerance, an education awareness campaign to build a quality generation, the creation of educational boards on waste management to preserve the environment, and the “Sapa Desa” (Semangat Aksi Peduli Desa) movement to strengthen social relations. In addition, supplementary programs such as KKN Cerdas, RUMTAr, Gen Q, Spada, along with student involvement in the fruit and flower festival, selling local products, supporting farmers, and fundraising for the Independence Day celebration, further reinforced collaborative roles with the community. These activities are expected to create synergy between students and the people of Berastagi in fostering inclusive attitudes, mutual cooperation, and environmental care, making religious moderation not only a concept but also a real practice in social life.
The Ciomas Golok is one of Banten’s intangible cultural heritage items, carrying profound historical, philosophical, and social meaning. More than a traditional weapon, it represents identity, honor, and the spirit of resistance against colonial rule. This study explores the origins and genealogy of the Ciomas Golok, analyzes the philosophy of “grip strength” encompassing physical, mental, and spiritual dimensions, and explains its role as a symbol of honor within Banten society. The research also examines its transformation in the modern era and compares it with other traditional weapons in the Nusantara and abroad. A qualitative method with a cultural ethnographic framework was applied. The research took place in Ciomas District, Serang Regency, as well as in museums, traditional markets, and cultural festivals. Data collection involved participant observation, in-depth interviews with blacksmith masters, community leaders, cultural figures, and youth, supported by literature documentation. Data analysis employed semiotics and symbolic anthropology, with validity maintained through triangulation of sources, methods, and theories. Findings show that the Ciomas Golok dates back to the Banten Sultanate era, evolving from an agricultural tool and weapon of resistance into a cultural artifact and creative economic commodity. The philosophy of “grip strength” highlights holistic values the golok as a symbol of honor, responsibility, and solidarity. Its continuing presence underscores the urgency of preservation. The study concludes that safeguarding the Ciomas Golok requires collaboration among blacksmiths, local communities, government, and academics to ensure its ongoing relevance as both a cultural emblem and an expression of Indonesian national identity.

Kebun Raya Mangrove (KRM) Surabaya is the first thematic botanical garden in Indonesia that focuses specifically on the mangrove ecosystem. It serves multiple functions, including conservation, education, research, and recreation. With its ecological uniqueness, KRM has strong potential to develop into a prominent ecotourism destination. However, post-pandemic conditions have seen a significant decline in visitor numbers, indicating the urgent need for more effective and targeted marketing strategies. This study aims to identify and evaluate marketing strategies that can enhance tourist interest and increase visitation to KRM Surabaya. The research adopts a descriptive method with a qualitative approach by collecting both primary data (through observations and interviews) and secondary data, which are then analyzed thematically. The findings indicate that KRM is currently facing several critical challenges, including limited accessibility, inadequate digital promotion, and environmental maintenance issues. Existing marketing efforts—such as affordable ticket pricing, minimal promotion via the official social media accounts of the Food Security and Agriculture Service, and limited collaboration with local SMEs—have not successfully expanded KRM’s market reach or visibility. To address these gaps, the study recommends a comprehensive marketing strategy that includes the optimization of digital marketing through official KRM-managed social media channels, strategic partnerships with ecotourism influencers, the organization of thematic events (e.g., mangrove festivals), and the innovation of mangrove-based products that can boost local identity and visitor engagement. By implementing these strategies, KRM is expected to strengthen its destination branding, attract a broader audience, and establish itself as a leading model for sustainable tourism in Surabaya and beyond.
Along with the increasing threat of cybercrime, which is predicted to cause losses of up to US$10.5 trillion by 2025 , penetration testing (pentest) has become a crucial strategy for identifying security vulnerabilities. However, the manual pentest process is often time-consuming. This research aims to analyze the role, effectiveness, and challenges of Generative AI (GenAI), specifically GPT-4.1, in accelerating and optimizing the penetration testing process. This research method uses a qualitative approach with a case study on the "PumpkinFestival" VulnHub machine , where GPT-4.1 is integrated into the Kali Linux environment through the ShellGPT tool. The results show that GPT-4.1 can significantly accelerate all stages of the pentest, from reconnaissance to exploitation. GenAI proved effective in analyzing scan results, composing specific payloads, and creating decryption scripts quickly and accurately , while also filling a research gap by evaluating a newer AI model compared to previous studies. The implication is that the integration of GenAI in cybersecurity has great potential to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of security teams in facing increasingly complex threats.
Traditional arts are an important part of cultural heritage that must be preserved. One of the unique and distinctive art forms from Batu Bajanjang, Lembang Jaya District, in Solok Regency, West Sumatra, is the Plate Dance in Ateh Talua. This dance has deep philosophical values and requires extraordinary skills from the dancers. However, modernization and the decreasing interest of the younger generation are major challenges in preserving this dance. This article discusses the History of Plate Dance Art, Plate Dance Art in Diateh Talua, and efforts that can be made to Preserve Plate Dance in Ateh Talua so that it remains part of the cultural identity of the Batu Bajanjang community. Through education, cultural festivals, and government and community support, this art can continue to develop and be passed on to future generations.
Riau Malay performing arts are an important cultural heritage, serving as a medium for the expression of identity, moral values, and spirituality of the community. Its existence faces challenges due to globalization, social change, and the declining interest of the younger generation. This paper examines the cultural dynamics, changes in function, and preservation strategies of Riau Malay performing arts. The method used is a literature study with analysis of various sources. The results show that digital innovation, government policy, education, cultural festivals, and legal protection are key in maintaining the sustainability of this art. However, preservation is still faced with weak coordination, lack of protection, and the threat of modernization. Therefore, a collaborative and adaptive approach is needed for Riau Malay performing arts to remain sustainable in the modern era.
The purpose of this study is to determine the influence of Digital Marketing and Ticket Prices on Visit Decisions with the Customer Review moderation variable at the Sounds of Downtown Surabaya Concert. This study uses a quantitative method with a strategy using a survey, which has a total of 100 respondents with the result of distributing an e-questionnaire using a non-probability sampling technique with incidental sampling as the method. The analysis was carried out using statistical methods used to test the direct influence and moderation between the variables. This study shows that Digital Marketing has a significant effect on Visit Decisions with a significance value of 0.000. Likewise, the Ticket Price has an effect with a significance value of 0.034. The Customer Review variable was unable to moderate the influence of Digital Marketing and Ticket Prices on Visit Decisions with significance values of 0.097 and 0.667, respectively. With this research, it can be emphasized that Digital Marketing and Ticket Prices are able to drive Visit Decisions compared to Customer Reviews. Therefore, it is highly recommended for entrepreneurs who are already running a business in the entertainment/event industri or who are just starting out to encourage the optimization of Digital Marketing and periodically review the effectiveness of Ticket Prices and pay attention to the use of Customer Reviews in practice to motivate potential consumers or potential consumers.
This article explores the contextualisation of Christianity within Chinese culture by examining how Christian worship can embrace local wisdom and cultural values. Contextualisation plays a crucial role in ensuring that the expression of Christian faith remains both theologically sound and cul-turally resonant. In the Chinese context, where ancestral reverence, symbolic traditions, and fami-ly-centered values are deeply embedded, a sensitive and thoughtful approach is required. The study employs a qualitative method through a literature review of theological writings, historical records, and cultural analyses to investigate how Christian theology can engage meaningfully with Chinese traditions. The findings reveal that certain cultural elements—such as ancestor honour, which is central to filial piety; the colour red, symbolising prosperity and joy; and the collectivist view of family—can be reinterpreted within a Christian framework. Ancestor honour, for instance, can be seen not as idol worship but as a celebration of faith heritage and family lineage. The use of tradi-tional music, symbols, and festivals such as Chinese New Year in church services demonstrates that cultural integration is possible without compromising the gospel's core message.Moreover, the emphasis on harmony and extended family in Chinese society parallels the Christian concept of koinonia, or spiritual fellowship. By embracing these cultural values, churches in China can present the Christian faith in ways that are both biblically faithful and culturally meaningful. This research underscores the importance of contextual theology in nurturing indigenous expressions of Chris-tianity that honor both Christ and culture.
This study formulates integrative strategies to revitalize the Darussalam Prayer Hall in Jorong Situjuah Gadang, Nagari Situjuah Gadang. A qualitative-descriptive case study was conducted using semi-structured interviews, participatory observation, and visual documentation, with data analyzed through reduction, thematic presentation, and triangulation. Results show a 25% increase in congregational attendance after improvements to physical facilities, particularly lighting and seating, accompanied by creative programs such as calligraphy, hadroh, and thematic studies. The use of local social media (WhatsApp and Instagram) enhanced digital engagement by 200%, while youth involvement grew significantly. Collaboration between takmir, community leaders, and digital volunteers was identified as a critical success factor. The study concludes that combining physical improvements, innovative programs, and digital communication creates a synergistic effect in revitalizing prayer hall activities. Recommendations include establishing an annual Islamic cultural festival, developing a digital scheduling platform, and strengthening takmir management training to ensure sustainability.
Madura, an island in East Java, is known for its rich cultural heritage. Despite this, prevailing stereotypes in society often emphasize negative aspects of Madurese culture, which can obscure its valuable and positive traditions. One such cultural gem is Daul music—a vibrant and rhythmic musical expression that deserves greater public appreciation. This study explores the design and development of a digital comic titled “The Sparkle of Madura’s Daul”, which aims to introduce Daul music to a younger audience, particularly teenagers aged 18–22, through the Webtoon platform. Utilizing a qualitative descriptive method, the research gathered data through observation, questionnaires, and interviews to inform the design process. The comic is created not only as an engaging entertainment medium but also as a tool for cultural education and preservation. By integrating narrative and visual storytelling, the comic presents Daul music in a compelling and accessible format, positioning it as a cultural asset comparable to the well-known Karapan Sapi. The final product is intended to reshape perceptions of Madurese identity, promote cultural pride, and encourage the appreciation of traditional music among youth. This initiative highlights the potential of digital media to bridge generational and cultural gaps while revitalizing local heritage through creative means.
